Despite being embroiled in a financial crisis, burdened by mounting debts, prompting discussions about a potential restructuring of the national carrier, SriLankan Airlines has seen an impressive response of over 8000 applications for cabin crew positions. 

The ongoing cabin crew interviews in Colombo have seen an influx of aspiring candidates, demonstrating their youthful energy and unwavering determination to serve with passion. However, behind the scenes, the airline grapples with financial challenges that have cast a shadow over its operations.

As the nation's pride, SriLankan Airlines has long been a symbol of excellence in the aviation industry. However, the airline's financial woes have reached a critical point, with soaring debt levels taking a toll on its overall sustainability.

"We celebrate the enthusiastic response from the candidates and their love and loyalty towards the airline," shared a spokesperson from SriLankan Airlines. "However, we cannot overlook the significant financial challenges we are facing."

The airline is currently exploring possible solutions to address the dire situation, including the prospect of a comprehensive restructuring plan. The aim is to alleviate the financial burden and pave the way for a more sustainable future.
